amiibo Nicknames Thread + Inspiration

• Mario (DoTheMario): Inspired from the dance from the Super Mario Bros. Super Show!
  
• Lucario (#GEN4SUCKS): Named to piss of fans of Pokemon Generation IV and, more importantly, my friends
  
• PAC-MAN (Hirohito): ...Because he's made in Japan...? ...And Hirohito was a Japanese emperor's name...? (Also once named PizzaPasta because in his 8-bit form he looks like a pizza, also name was taken from a Punch-Out!! boxer)
  
• R.O.B. (Bumblebee): Named after the Transformer
  
• Mr. Game & Watch (Blacktimus): I like Transformers, and since Optimus was an unfitting name for G&W, Blacktimus was chosen (because, surprise surprise, he's the shade of black)
  
• Duck Hunt (Rushmore): Named after my first dog, who passed away three weeks before acquiring this amiibo. RIP Rushmore
  
• Ganondorf (Megatron): Named after the Transformer (first named Arklaine, a Fire Emblem OC I created at the time)
  
• Dr. Mario (Diabeetus): Because I watched this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_fg9VcYKKo (Originally named Ratchet, after the Transformer)
  
• Falco (Prefersair): "Personally, I prefer the air!" -Falco, Super Smash Bros.
  
• Luigi (Spaghetti): "I hope she made lotsa spaghetti!" -Luigi, Hotel Mario
  
• Bowser (Action2K16): Named after this yearly event at my former high school called "Action". It's basically a class competition where the four classes represent a character from a theme chosen every year. In this case, I was a senior, the theme was Super Smash Bros., and our class' character was Bowser. I bought this amiibo in honor of our class.
  
• Zelda (Desdemona): Named for the wife of Othello in the Shakespearean play Othello. Named so because I performed the death scene where Othello kills Desdemona. (I was Othello.)
  
• Peach (Antoinette): Named after Queen Marie Antoinette of France, who (falsely) stated that if peasants were hungry they should eat cake. And Peach is usually connected to cake, as she bakes some for Mario. (Originally named "CAKE 64+", lucky that name never stuck)
  
• Roy (Eliwood Jr): Roy is Eliwood's son, so...
  
• Lucas (Rookie): My newest recruit, at the time. His name could've been...ill-mannered. (They were "Orphan Boy" and "HasDeadMom", respectively.)
  
• Pikachu (Voltaire): Named for the Enlightenment philosopher. Plus the name is awesome
  
• Charizard (Not-Ridley): Charizard is NOT Ridley. Even when Charizard uses the purple skin.
  
• Fox (Zero Focks): Because he doesn't give a f*** on how he's actually supposed to fight, even when trained intensely
  
• Jigglypuff (Breadloaf): Named for an "object of focus" in this school play I performed in. I bought this amiibo around the same time our play premiered.
  
• Link (Mahboi): "Mah boi, this peace is what all true warriors strive for!" -King Harkinian, Link and the Faces of Evil
  
• Wii Fit Trainer (STEPITUP): My brother's name for this amiibo, as it was his originally.
  
• Yarn Yoshi (Yarnshi): Also my brother's, but I reset and originally renamed it to "Touch N Go", after that one Yoshi game, but renamed it to fit its amiibo design.
  
• Ryu (SUREHECAN!): Because he sure can do it!
  
• King Dedede (Clobbahdat): "I need a monstah to clobbah dat dere Kirbeh!" -King Dedede, Kirby: Right Back at Ya!
  
• Ike (Greil Jr): Ike is Greil's son, so...
  
• Meta Knight (Knightmare):  Named for that game in Kirby Super Star Ultra, but also because he's a real nightmare to watch fight
  
• Mii Brawler (Glass Joe): Mii Brawler is a Mii that looks like the Punch-Out!! character Glass Joe
  
• Mii Gunner (Brock): Mii Gunner is a Mii that looks like the Pokemon character Brock
  
• Mii Swordfighter (Frollo): Mii Swordfighter is a Mii that looks like Disney's The Hunchback of Notre Dame character Claude Frollo
  
• Palutena (Lady Cupid): In Rhythm Heaven Fever, there's this character starring in a minigame named Lady Cupid, who bears a striking resemblance to Palutena (her green hair), but shares a resemblance in body type with Classic Pit
  
• Shulk (Tignileef): His name is "feeling it" backwards! Get it?
  
• Greninja (Nerfinja): Because Greninja got nerfed in early Sm4sh.
